Great review. Given it's their first attempt, this car is phenomenal. For people who can't afford a Porsche, who cares if it's derivative, most cars are to varying degrees. The exterior and interior look good on camera. I prefer the wood effect plastic over the shiny piano black stuff the more premium brands use. The soft hand grabs aren't such a bad idea. They're positioned at head height so bumping your head on a hard hand grab might occur, not a problem with these. That physical button add-on for the display screen should be standard IMO. The add-on display pads for rear seat passengers is great. It would be good if this was an option for the front passenger as well. I wonder how much additional down force that spoiler generates. I looks a bit like a gimmick🤔. I do worry about a greater incidence of high speed crashes in these powerful new cars. They're relatively cheap, ridiculously powerful, and perhaps instil an over-confidence in the cars handling and the drivers ability. A potential recipe for disaster. If you do a review of an electric car with the under-body LED's and NOX release add-ons, can you please shave your head, get a head tattoo, and some kind of edgy beard trim, and wear one of Wheelsboys Hawaiian shirts.
Good analysis. After all, cars usually crash on their own and I may suggest the abilities and overconfidence of the drivers are a high percentage and add to that human errors are mainly to blame. This had me sold on that SU7 at the end of the video. Under,US $30,000?? I couldn't even get a Acura TSL or a Kia Genesis.
It’s a death trap there is nothing amazing in this car it’s just straight up shitbox NOT A SINGLE POSITIVE. It’s so cheap because it’s cheaply made. No stat said is actually true in real world conditions 😂
This is the coolest EV ever made, cool design (nothing to do with Porsche), maybe a little inspiration. And then they have some super cool add-ons that can be put on the display and that make really good sense.
No idea. I don't know if there are plans for English software. Did it not come with a side loaded 3rd party english UI? I guess you can use apply car play which is a good thing.
@@cfeifei1874 If you use reviewers actually the testing shows non of the claims you have said are true. Real 0-60mph/~100km/h is actually in the 3s but that’s more to do with the fact Xiami measure 0-100 when the car is moving (rolling start) which is weird since that eliminates launch which makes up your 0-60 time but that still is insane. The car is extremely amazing car though I must add. Yes the brakes are worrying considering it’s a “track” possible car. Other than the other issues not noted I must say you’re spot on. For a first car, it’s a good sign for what’s to come.
Su7 ultra “test car” just broke Nuremberg track record, being the fastest 4 door car. Many commented on its a “prototype”, it’s not a real Xaomi, etc. based on the news I read SU7 Ultra is or will be in production.
I respect this car so much despite it being unsafe. Why ? Beacause it looks amazing !! It’s fast it has amazing tech and most importantly it’s cheap unlike the overpriced European cars. For that despite the flaws I respect it so much
Nice summary at the end. Thanks for clarifying the issue about brake pads. For ordinary drivers, especially those using regenerative braking, the brake pads should be perfectly fine, correct?
Yes. But Xiaomi is now offering a brake pad and brake fluid upgrade for 4000 rmb. I think you can source your own high quality pads and fluid for cheaper, and this shouldn't affect the warranty. But i don't know that for sure.
@@1024. Thanks for explaining. SU7 won't be a problem for me then, as I have no desire for "极限运动和测试"! Part of the problem may be that Xiaomi emphasised that SU7 is intended to be a "driver's car", and may have inadvertently encouraged unrealistic driving behaviour! Thanks again.
The zeekr 001 is more comfortable. The Xiaomi Su7 is better driving dynamics. The Zeekr 001 is good but its heavy and feels heavy. For the soundproofing, its been too long since i've drivne the zeekr 001. I can't remember...
Yes English UI would be nice, but obviously this is not a priority for them right now. And even those cars/OEMs with english UIs didn't launch with them. So it may come further down the line, at least this car, unlike the majority, comes with Apple carplay and android auto which could be used while you wait.
the SU7 seems to have all the ingredients to be a fantastic car. power. range. ergonomics. design. torque. also double wishbone 2-chamber air suspension and multi-link rear suspension. so it *should* handle really well on...say... UK B-roads. but does it? there's so much more to a Porsche Taycan than just the acceleration and top speed. perhaps not 5 times as much. but the price of a pre-owned one that's practically new tells us where the market sees the real value, and that's MUCH closer to the SU7
chinese consumers are just freakazoids now when it comes to new tech in general, esp when it's from a top domestic brand. e.g. shooting rifles on huawei mate60pro's to test its kunlun glass's extreme durability, even driving cars over it to see if it breaks, driving byd u8 on waters. basically just too extreme testing on national brands bc maybe they are already fed up with the image in the past that chinese products have been breaking down easily, etc. and they want to prove otherwise. in this xiaomi su7 case, i think many users really abused the brembo brakes too much by testing the braking distance and averaging more than 20+ tests to confirm the 33ish m result on paper. ofc others found this absurd bc you never do this to a toyota or an iphone just to prove a point but that's about it.
The brake failures were due to the brake pads not the brembo supplied callipers. And the videos of the pads disintegrating were mainly on track usage. Many claiming they weren't lasting for more than a lap. Xiaomi is already offering brake pad and brake fluid upgrades to owners. So they've kind of admitted that the pads are not up to standard inline with the cars performance.
@@ChinaDriven Come on, the fact of the matter now is that there are people who have gone up to 270KM/H in Russia in an SU7, and there are people who still maintain a 33m braking distance in China after braking a dozen times in a row. And you are saying SU7's brakes are faulty because of a track accident, put away your prejudice
what prejudice? MULTIPLE videos of brake PADS disintegrating on track on Chinese social media. It's not prejudice to talk about it, and as I stated in the video, on road I had no problem with them. The fact that Xiaomi is now offering upgraded pads and fluid should be clue enough that the reports of those pad failures has some merit. And as I stated quite clearly, people shouldn't be expecting stock brakes to handle hard track work. I was EXTREMELY balanced and fair in my summary of the issue that has been reported...what more do you want from me?
@@ChinaDriven At the end of the day this car is a family car and LEI has said not to drive the SU7 at the track. And your logic is ridiculous, launching a track kit =admitted that the pads are not up to standard inline with the cars performance. However the fact is that Xiaomi's brakes have no problems on a daily basis I don't see the need for Xiaomi to launch these things because 3rd party manufacturers will do it. They could have made people buy SU7 ULTRA too, but they still listened to their users and did this. I don't want to discuss this anymore, it's time for me to sleep, I just think if you want to be a well known car blogger you should be careful with your words to avoid legal risks.
@@NiMareQ I wouldn’t be concerned about the brakes on road. But Xiaomi has offered a pad and brake fluid upgrade if owners want it. I’d daily this EV for sure. Rides well but it’s on the sportier side ride wise. But it’s not harsh. It doesn’t feel super cheap. But like I said some of the materials are plastic. But that’s the trade off for the driving dynamics you get for this price. Obviously it’s a new car from a new brand so I can’t speak to reliability or how it will hold up long term.
They should have worked with Xpeng Motors, and others to begin improving everything they could improve and not do mistakes as they did, with some material damages... They proposed nice things, that Porsche and other brands should use, but were not recognized globally for what they did effectively...
The truth is that XPENG didn't have any good sales in China, they missed too many things.P7 didn't have a timely facelift and replacement, but instead launched many cheap EVs to pull down the brand image, and in the end, these cheapies didn't bring any sales......Back then they started to imitate MODELY and launched the G6 ...... and the G9 which was delayed delivery and beaten by LI AUTO ...... they missed so much that they are already on the verge of going down from the poker table ...... the best thing that could have happened to them is that they were bought by Xiaomi, the Because XPENG received a lot of investment from LEI JUN aka Xiaomi's CEO from the early days of their business ......
Brembo is OEM parts supplier. they make brake based on OEMs specification. The brake pads are what people were complaining about specifically. The calipers are Brembos not the pads.
Your headline caught my attention so I kept on viewing it to see what the big problem was. In the end I was disappointed. You had me fooled!😂. That was reverse psychology and you had me turned into a true believer of SU 7. Sign me up if we are lucky enough to get them over here at home.
Hmm, can't be that bad a car. No less than Ford CEO Jim Farley has had one as his daily driver for a few months and he doesn't want to give it back to Ford, who bought it.

Very interesting car. Seems to have build quality issues similar to Tesla. Would be competitive with the M3P for sure, but with a battery better than the long range model... wow. Wish it was sold in the USA
They have "supplier quality issues similar to Tesla" (Who also used Brembo brakes.... and if you check, they are used by..... Ferrari, so you MIGHT think that a new manufacturer would be quite responsible in specifying "The company that supplies Ferrari" ? That being the case, Is the problem with the car manufacturer? I imagine they provide the weight of the vehicle, performance specs and Request that Brembo provide a suitable sytem from Hydraulics, to pads and discs?
Yes, I wonder if we'll get the full fat version they showed off for the Nurburgring. Perhaps a range of them. Maybe a RWD with one of those V8S motors, one of those alone has 578hp & 635Nm...reckon that would be quite good fun!
Old news. Didn't hear about the Su7 Ultra? Fastest 4 door sedan in the world, around NUrburgring, 0-100 kph in 1.98'. $114,000. Do try to keep up, laddie.
LOL. I referenced the SU7 Ultra in this video...this video was uploaded a couple of months ago. The Ultra unveiled this month. I'm up to date on everything EVs. I'll no doubt see it at Guangzhou Auto on Friday.
Issues reported with "thin paint," build quality issues with the front fender panels which seems to pop off. And the biggest and latest is brake pads disintegrating (albeit from track use.) But as I explained in the video, although the performance of the pads only need to handle on-road performance demands, brake pads disintegrating in a single track lap still feels quite poor. And I think consumers were not impressed because how much advertisement showed the SU7 on track, and the amount the performance was talked about. This has prompted discussion on chinese social media talking about companies shoving so much power into these EVs, but neglecting the braking performance.
@@kevbrown1867 So brembo is a brake manufacturer and will design or sell calipers/brakes to OEMs. The actual issue with the brakes is not the caliper housing but the actually brake pads. They seem to be super soft to reduce brake squeal. But this means they don’t last long. Normally on road EV brake performance is a mixture of brake regeneration and physical braking using the pads. On track you can imagine people are turning off or turning down brake regen and the pads just don’t hold up to continuous high temp high pressure.
Western countries will find new reason to ban this car now. Even if they put 100 percent tariff they are still cheap. 😂. Western countries capitalism and globalization is only until the west is profitable but now when they are losing money they started taxing .. 😂
673 hp and top speed 210 km/h..!, Car from the company Škoda Octavia diesel 115 hp goes 212 km/h according to GPS. This "Xiaomi" looks like a Ford Taurus 3 generation from 1996, especially at the back.
Some features are not able to be offered. OS systems are changed to be compatible with Google services, ADAS features reduced. But which Chinese EVs do you think are only mediocre in the West?
What do you mean "... or a poser"? Isn't it true that 98% of Tesla3 Performance drivers bought the car because they couldn't afford penis enlargement surgery?
Brake failure on racing tracks ..... Hahaha .... Those people should buy Ferrari and spend value of Xiaomi for a few laps and still potentially have a brakes failure for crazy money .....
@@rogerstarkey5390 Brembo is an OEM parts supplier. Meaning they supply brakes to the manufacturers specifications. People have moaned Xiaomi are way under sized. But the issue on track seems to stem from the pads.
Since this video has gone live Xiaomi has offered customers a ¥4,000 ($550) upgrade. It includes uprated brake pads and uprated brake fluid. 😂😅🎉

There isn’t really any roadmap from Xiaomi of taking its EVs abroad yet…
It is always Icarus for Americans if it is from China.
Well I'm not American...but I thought the Icarus reference tied in nicely with the concerns of the Su7 after launch on Chinese social media.
Why a cargo bin to go into another cargo bin (frunk) to make it smaller?
I think two reasons. One you can remove it and clean it easier. And secondly it makes the shape more uniformed
Why is Icarus black
he flew too close to the sun
hahaha, brilliant observation.
Brembo by Temu

When you buy a car from TEMU.
Instead of copying a Taycan, they copied a tin can.
Old news. Didn't hear about the Su7 Ultra? Fastest 4 door sedan in the world, around NUrburgring, 0-100 kph in 1.98'. $114,000. Do try to keep up, laddie.
LOL. I referenced the SU7 Ultra in this video...this video was uploaded a couple of months ago.
The Ultra unveiled this month. I'm up to date on everything EVs. I'll no doubt see it at Guangzhou Auto on Friday.
Good gosh that thing is 41,000 usd, and would wipe out the market easily.
In China outside of China though their still inferior to tesla evs are 50-100% MORE. And good luck ever getting any service done on it!
So what's the criticism ?
Issues reported with "thin paint," build quality issues with the front fender panels which seems to pop off.
And the biggest and latest is brake pads disintegrating (albeit from track use.) But as I explained in the video, although the performance of the pads only need to handle on-road performance demands, brake pads disintegrating in a single track lap still feels quite poor. And I think consumers were not impressed because how much advertisement showed the SU7 on track, and the amount the performance was talked about.
This has prompted discussion on chinese social media talking about companies shoving so much power into these EVs, but neglecting the braking performance.
@@ChinaDriven aren’t these the same brakes on European luxury and super cars ?
@@kevbrown1867 So brembo is a brake manufacturer and will design or sell calipers/brakes to OEMs. The actual issue with the brakes is not the caliper housing but the actually brake pads. They seem to be super soft to reduce brake squeal. But this means they don’t last long.
Normally on road EV brake performance is a mixture of brake regeneration and physical braking using the pads. On track you can imagine people are turning off or turning down brake regen and the pads just don’t hold up to continuous high temp high pressure.
@@ChinaDriven 非常中肯的观点！
@@ChinaDriven So basically any family sedan that is taken to the track and ran like a F1 car would probably blow out their brakes as well
Western countries will find new reason to ban this car now. Even if they put 100 percent tariff they are still cheap. 😂. Western countries capitalism and globalization is only until the west is profitable but now when they are losing money they started taxing .. 😂
673 hp and top speed 210 km/h..!, Car from the company
Škoda Octavia diesel 115 hp goes 212 km/h according to GPS. This "Xiaomi" looks like a Ford Taurus 3 generation from 1996, especially at the back.
@@nurnberg1561 265kph for the max versions. But EVs are known to generally have lower top speeds. It’s just a weakness of single gear EV motors
All Chinese cars seems to amazing. Until they bring them to west and all is mediocre at best.
Some features are not able to be offered. OS systems are changed to be compatible with Google services, ADAS features reduced.
But which Chinese EVs do you think are only mediocre in the West?

짝퉁 포르쉐 ㅋ
Free Tibete!!!
First 2 minutes of video not needed. This is not top gear.
Thank you for sharing your opinion. It’s wrong but thanks anyways 😂
What do you mean "... or a poser"?
Isn't it true that 98% of Tesla3 Performance drivers bought the car because they couldn't afford penis enlargement surgery?
Still behind Ioniq 5/6 from Hyundai... hyped crap.
Tesla has Quality issues cheap quality 💩
Tesla specifies Brembo brakes.... So does Ferrari.
dont agree with the rear lights
It's fine to disagree. Beauty is subjective, and we if we all liked exactly the same things car design would be very boring.
Brake failure on racing tracks ..... Hahaha .... Those people should buy Ferrari and spend value of Xiaomi for a few laps and still potentially have a brakes failure for crazy money .....
yes it's a bit silly.
Which brand of brakes does Ferrari use?
Take a guess.
@@rogerstarkey5390 Brembo is an OEM parts supplier. Meaning they supply brakes to the manufacturers specifications.
People have moaned Xiaomi are way under sized. But the issue on track seems to stem from the pads.
Im gonna go w/ bubbles purge instead 2 remind ice cars 2 chill & not race an ev bc they'll loose!😙🫧🫧
It has just been caught testing in Barcelona with ccs charge port, 340kw charging speed
